• The aim of the project is to help improve medicine compliance of Deaf people.• This application serves as an add on

feature on SignSupport where the pharmacist has the option to set a date and time for the patient to consumer their medication with the instructions.

Term3 • Stand alone video

“reminder”• Used App Inventor.• Unable to notify the

deaf patient when it’s the right time and instruct at the same time

Term4• Integrated the

reminder onto Sign Support.

• Used Android.• Notifies the deaf

patient when it is the right time and it comes with a set of instructions to follow

• Allow the pharmacist freedom to change and add more or other instructions.• Getting the notification to still notify

even when the phone is off.• Aligning the application to run using

the time and date of Google calendar.Google calendar does not allow for

videos, only text and audio based.

• Get the application aligned with Google calendar• Get the application to notify even if it is

off• Getting the notification to also produce a

flashing light• Getting the notification to repeat again if

the deaf patient did not open notification the first time around

• Eclipse Juno for developers• Java Development Kit (JDK) and Java

Question & Answers

• public class DateAndTimeSelector extends Activity{

• DatePicker pickerDate;// This is the date picker used to select the date for our notification

• TimePicker pickerTime;// This is the time picker used to select the time for our notification

• Button buttonSetAlarm;// The set button once clicked sets the time and date so that a notification is called up

• TextView info;// Variable for displaying pieces of information• ImageButton next;// Button for moving to the next page.

• final static int RQS_1 = 1;

• /** Called when the activity is first created. */• @Override• protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

• super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);• setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);// this will pull the xml file

named activity

• next =(ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.imageButton1);//imageButton1 id is pulled and will be accessible when the next button is pressed.

• info = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.info);//text is stored as id info and accessible through the name info

• pickerDate = (DatePicker)findViewById(R.id.pickerdate);// id pickerdate

• pickerTime = (TimePicker)findViewById(R.id.pickertime);// id pickertime

• /** The button next is pressed it goes to a method that performs an action when pressed */
